Y’all need to come to terms sooner or later americans don’t resist because they materially benefit from imperial hegemony. As long as that power sustains their comfort and keeps existential threats at a distance, most will tolerate, rationalizemor even defend the system

You guys are purposely acting dumb, cos if Zendaya herself acknowledged that she’s goes for roles originally written for white women it shows that shes aware of her biracial identity and how it operates within an industry that privileges proximity to whiteness.

Zendaya is a very interesting case because even though her character was originally white in the film’s script, this person views her as inherently black solely because Zendaya played her, but simultaneously thinks that Zendaya isn’t black enough to play the character

@nobarashxmmer Not really the point, the point is about a broader pattern, why that same openness doesn’t consistently extend to monoracial Black women as well. I promise u if internet dwellers saying stuff on twitter would prevent her from finding work we wouldn’t be having this convo
English
@mourningothic But they’re not advocating for more monoracial actresses in general they’re specifically wanting zendaya’s roles to go to them instead of having others. Should zendaya not work?💀

I call this intergenerational repetition of abusive sexual power. Millenials and genX have reckoned with epstein and his clique of pedophiles friends coercing and grooming them, are ironically now repeating the same pattern with Gen Z under the guise of “sex-positivity”

@puppetgrl_ It’s definitely a trend

why do yall think sex positive millennials/boomers who wanna groom the youth use the word puritan/ puriteen against younger people as a stand in for prude? is it cos the word prude ->in relation to not enjoying sexual forms of violence would give wht they truly mean away
English
the sexual liberationist truly hates the so-called “puritan” not for any genuine moral reason, but because the “puritan” has the potential to say no to men. Ntm the fact that the evangelical puritan movement was not anti-sex & they fought to keep slavery/sexualized violence legal

By ur logic if women’s disproportionate engagement in a particular pornographic category constitutes evidence of their autonomy or ‘true nature,’ then by the same logic, men overwhelming consuming content depicting rape, pedophilia & the like would be taken as their true nature ?
English
Someone has to keep reminding twitter users not being able to clock inflation in minority calculations that of course a group of 9/10 consuming a category will be presumed higher than a group of 100/10,000 doing the same like what exactly is the point supposed to be here?

someone has to keep reminding radfems that the majority of porn consumers viewing “violent” porn categories are women

I love seeing how witch hunts evolve over the years based on what the current system that (prioritizes men’s feelings based on their anxieties and insecurities) deems worthy of lifting pitchforks without second thoughts 😍

All am gonna say, i understand why harriet tubman was willing to shoot other blacks

In a society where how conventionally attractive you are has a DIRECT correlation to your quality of life can you really judge black women for not wanting to wear their hair in a state that has been chastised for generations ????

If adult women wanted to be treated like children, they wouldn’t have as much autonomy as wielding credit cards. Like i promise u no adult woman wants to be treated like an actual child, to relinquish agency to inhabit the powerless, subordinate position that childhood entails
English
I cant with the irony here…woman expresses simple whimsy but full adult in agency then criticize her for upholding patriarchal heteronormativity pedophilic social schema-which harms children mostly-then likens her behavior as evidence of cognitive & moral immaturity to a child
English
Yall always say this as some pesudo critique of the infantilisation of women in heteronormative dynamics, but relying on a fantasy of children that doesn’t materially exist. Kids in the real word dont get famously treated with whimsy, they are always treated like lesser beings
ˆ𐃷ˆ@flirtaeyeon
it will never sit right with me how adult women literally crave to be treated like kids by the men they're dating like ... it's unsettling
English
its because they are aware deviation from slenderness & blackness particularly in the form of the natural afro is considered undesirable so thinness is used to compensate and make the afro palatable, bearable to the white gaze.Thats why all the pushback appreciation posts against
